This Hori puoch is the best pouch I own and have seen. It has many postive features. What I like most is the size, it's small enough to not get in the way, even when it's attached in any of the three ways. Plus, with the size it can hold some accessories. For example an Extra Battery, headphones (Earbuds or really small foldable), UMD's, cleaning cloth, and two Memory Stick's. But For umds it can hold only two. Thats a drawback but better than most others.

It's also quite strong and can take some rough treatment. Not too great in the rain but it's ok. The only large drawback I can find are the straps in front that secure the PSP to the pouch. You have to pull the string back behind the case to get the PSP out. It doesn't clip or use velco. Although this is the biggest drawback, it's more of a small hindrance rather than a real problem.

I would buy this again. And I recommend this for anyone. If you have a large collection of games and movies youd like to carry with you I can only say get the Hori media pouchs, get a diffrent case or try to stuff them in your pocket.

One of the best looking cases I've seen. Great for hiking. Does it have a belt loop?

Does the PSP fit all the way in the pouch or is part of it sticking out? BTW could the PSP with the Logitech PlayGear Pocket on it fit? Thank you for your time.

UDA i hope your kidding. the playgear pocket is so bulky, no way it could fit in that.

Well I dunno that outside pocket looks big enough, lol. Anways does anyone know if the PSP actually goes completely in the pocket or does it have like 1/4 of it sticking out in the air? Thanks.

I just got mine a few days ago, yeah the front pocket is for the psp and the logitech playgear isn't going to fit. The front pocket is big enough just to fit the psp, the front pocket also has a nice felt material inside to not scratch your psp screen.
The front pocket covers up to the line where the screen ends, so the part exposed would be the directional pad.
It also has a beltloop and what looks like a bookbag strap loop.

Definitely a nice case for the money, think most places sell it for $30,
it's kind of like the poorman's version of the porter case that goes for $100.

You mean the sensible version of the overpriced porter case.
I might look into this case because while the Playgear is nice and acts like total body armor for the PSP, it's way too big to carry around normally.

So your PSP is always partially exposed in this? It appears to be designed for hiking or outdoor use, I would think it would be better to have the PSP totally enclosed then to trust it won't fall out of that pocket. Regardless, I like the look of it.

I ordered mine yesterday, can't wait till it comes. My trusty playgear pocket is awesome but I like the thought of bringing at least 3 games and my memory sticks in one pouch that could easily strap on my backback.

it has a lot of loops and pockets, but the psp sticks out of the (fake suede) pouch a little. the pouch is very snug-maybe too snug-getting the psp in/out is kind of a tug-of-war. i worried about keeping my $100+ worth of games and memory sticks inside because the zippers are a little loose and there isn't a velcro flap over the top of the pockets inside the zippered compartment. i like it ok, but the original neoprene case that the psp comes with is still the best. i still have it hanging off one of the arm straps of my backpack (because it looks so cool), but i'm iffy about having a $250 piece of electronic equipment hanging precariously on the outside of something that i tend to toss around.

It does have alittle bit of the PSP sticking out. But you dont have to worry about it falling out. It has straps that hold the PSP in place. It sells for 30 + S&H. Bu I bught mine off ebay for alittle less then $15.00 and that included shipping and handling from hong kong. So thats a really good deal. People are worried about the part that is exposed. Its not alot that is exposed. Around 1/6. So just the directional pad shows. The Screen is well protected. Not the best in the rain. But easy to cover so you still dont need to worry. And the PSP is tough You dont need a titanium and kevlar case like everyone seems to think. Maybe if your really clumsy this would be a bad case. But for most peole it will do great. And no this case will not hold another psp case. Because they thought if you bought this case it would be enough. Because they designed it for that. Plus it seems kinda stuped. It's like putting a Vault in a Vault. We just and to be sure our money is protected. If you dont trust one case. I recommend you dont even touch your PSP. What would happen if you dropped it? All im saying is Relax if you dont think it will do the job dont buy it.
